Kinda cool!

[Gone in 60]

Don’t know much about it other than there’s a BMW under there, but this is in the work shop at the Petersen.



On my Enfield 650, I’m doing a bit more to make it more practical for the long commute I’m asking it to do twice a month.

Pdedse will remember this tall couch of a touring seat, as he had one on his 650. Super comfy, super tall, and, right now at least, super cheap. About 2 inches taller than what I had on it before, but a better bend in the knees for an hour trumps being on tiptoes with my short legs when I stop.


My friend is dabbling in 3d printing and asked if I wanted anything. I had him whip me up a clock mount using a file intended for a Beeline GPS.
This moves my stick-on $3 clock up where I don’t have to look down to see how late I’m running.


Last but not least I put a larger sprocket up front to bring the revs down a bit at freeway speeds. I had quite a scare a few days ago. Pulled off the freeway for my normal gas stop, and when I pulled away from the station, she wouldn’t shift out of first gear. I panicked thinking something terrible had happened. Turns out the shift linkage had loosened up during the ride and the shift lever couldn’t move.

Whew! Finger tight got us home to a 10mm and some Loctite.

Reminds me a bit of the yellow CB1100 that we used to see with some frequency...I miss that bike!

When I bought mine with touring seat, the PO had the stock seat as well, and I put that on for one ride and immediately took it off--I really needed that extra leg room.

What?! Running late on the mighty Interceptor? Only because you took the extra long way to work.

Loose shift linkage? Yikes!

That yellow contraption is interesting. I've never been a fan of side-cars or three-wheelers, but I respect those who are.
Seems like this forum comes and goes on my computers, no matter what I do. Right now it is fine on my old desktop running Windows 10, but it almost never works on my new, state of the art Windows 11 laptop, no matter what I do. Best wishes to all of you.

My wife is making noises about getting her a sidecar, but I don't want to. I'm going to try to talk her into a Can-Am or something similar.

We still have a member that frequently shows up on a 2014 CB1100 with a Ural sidecar attached via custom rig, but he uses his for his dog.....just saying, it's very possible
